    Hi Dave,


    In France you can find this for less than € 200 (in good running shape), due to the number of car (Atlanta ) sold thru the world i think this should be available also in England...


    Hallo Dave,


    In Frankreich können Sie das für weniger als 200 € (in guter Laufen-Gestalt), aufgrund der Zahl des Autos (Atlanta) verkauft durch die Welt finden ich denke, dass das auch in England oder Deutschland ! sein soll...



    Last Reverchon were built with "Albright" contactor / Letzter Reverchon wurde mit "Albright" Schaltschütz gebaut:

    Great job Man !


    Once you'll put back the wheel drive and the steel part that will be perfect!



    Wunderbar Mannie !


    Sobald Sie den Lankrad und den Stahlteil zurückstellen werden, der vollkommen sein wird!

    Hi Chris,


    Fix this kind of steering wheel with rubber removed and bent, seems to be impossible, (You could buy Garden hose and black adhesive tape, but the result will not be perfect) this modele of steering wheel (In France) have been replaced by a most modern one and so a lot of Showman can sell you this version very cheap...


    Hallo Chris,


    Befestigen Sie diese Art des Lenkrades mit Gummi entfernt und Neigung, nicht mögliche scheint, (Du kannst Gartenschlauch und schwarzen Klebstreifen kaufen, aber das Resultat wird nicht vollkommen) sein dieser modele des Lenkrades (in Frankreich) ist durch einen modernsten ersetzt worden, und so dass viel Schausteller Ihnen diese sehr billig Version verkaufen kann...

    Hi Dave,


    When you said motorise it, you need first to find the electric engine 110 V, once this have been done, you can use batteries (5* 24 V).You need also the contactor part.
    Coin slot can be passed by.


    Find attached the way to connect the batterie : One on the "pole" the other on "Floor brush" (or directly earthed)

    Hallo Dave,


    Als Sie sagten, motorisieren es, Sie müssen zuerst den elektrischen Motor 110 V finden, sobald das getan worden ist, können Sie Akku (5* 24 V) . Du Bedürfnis auch der Schaltschütz-Teil gebrauchen.


    Münzschlitz kann vorbeigegangen werden.


    Finden Sie beigefügt die Weise, den Akku zu verbinden: Eins auf dem "Pfosten" streift anderer auf " Fußboden " (oder direkt Electrick Masse)

    Hi Chris, HMG she's alive ! Sorry my German is not so good !


    Hallo Chris, Grüss Gott sie ist lebendig! Schade mein Deutsche ist nicht so gut!


    To repair seats :Use black windscreen glue as "Sikaflex" to fill the holes
    To clean "chromium" :Use woodsteel with soap


    Sitze zu reparieren: Benutzen Sie schwarzen Windschutzscheibe-Leim, um die Löcher als "Sikaflex" zu füllen
    "Chrom" zu reinigen: Benutzen Sie Holzstahl mit Seife (hoffe ich, dass Sie es in England oder in Deutschland finden können!)

    Die erst Model von 1927, berufen: Scooter car. Gaston Reverchon und ihre Gemahlin haben ein Karosserie wie die 20s wagen gemacht. Die Wagen war eine Badewanne, ein Lenkrad und ein Stuhl im einen Chassis von Amerika verfertigen.


    The first model was made in 1927, its name: Scooter Car. Gaston Reverchon and his wife made the body look like a typically 20’s car, on what’ s look like on a kind of bath tub, seat and wheel drive directly clamped on a chassis all made form US.


    El primer modele es de 1927, se apellido: Scooter Car. Gaston Reverchon y su esposa han fabricado una carrocería cómo los coches de los años 20, en los coches que fue componado de un baño, un sillón y una tracción hincada en un Chasis fabricado en los Estados Unidas.


    Le premier modèle sort en 1927 son nom : Scooter car. Le travail de Gaston Reverchon aidé de sa femme, est l’adaptation d’une carrosserie en forme de voiture de l’époque sur ce qui n’est qu’une sorte de baignoire, un siège et un volant posé sur un châssis fabriqué aux Etats-Unis.

    Atlanta-Prestige.jpgDSCN5299.jpgHi VDM,


    I think you could try with 1,8 bars (how is your tyre ? old with holes or still flexible) ?


    No, you can have both rear wheel in plastic the contact will be more flexible, you need to check the link between rear axle and chassis. Press the rear axel with your hand and check that axel is still in contact with both pin.


    The brush was introduced in 1976 on Reverchon models but some showman still had prefered to keep old sytem (one wheel in steel and one in plastic), it is very difficulte to find a Reverchon car not modified by showman or sold by Reverchon in standard version, most of them have been sold in accordance to showman request...

    My both cars : (Prestige 1981 & Atlanta 1977 ) had teflon rear wheel, that's the reason why they look like steel. Teflon wheel is a mixte between plastic and steel advantage : you have no noise, sliding of the car and long life but you have rigid contact between car and floor

    OH MY GOD ! VDM What a fantastic challenge !


    For sure, for my point of view, everything seems to be ok, find below my advice (if you wish) :


    The contactor ducktaped in blue is not an orignal one but a 1988 model, this means one it will have been cleaned, it will be ok this model is one of the strongest used by reverchon, the ducktape have been used only to clamp it on the old base


    Disjonctor ducktaped red / green DSCN5278.jpgcould be remplaced by a brand new one or check it but some many duck tape is not good.


    Once the car is on is side clean the motor with compress air but don't stay to close a lots of dust will go out thru all holes


    You don't need to remove the tyre, there is inner tube in the tyre, it is quite complicated to remove the tyre, so avoid to do it, and don't to let air go outside the tyre, it could be bad to inflate after, it normal pressure (1.8 Bar to 2.2 for a brand new one)


    To remove the body unscrew the two rear nuts cercled in red, you've got also two nuts in front (each side of the motor), think to remove the wire from the tokenbox


    You've got rear tyre are not worn out (i hope) check the thickness of diameter they should be the same, one is on iron for contact the other in plastic (cause you don't have a brush)


    For the light it should be easy to repair, 16 Bulb of 6 v or 8 Bulbs of 12 v


    So good luck !!!

    Hi VDM,


    You can test all the componants (Contactors and motor) with Ohm metric tool, open contactor black box, press the piece of steel with the spring, and check the Ohm value


    You can due the same on the pedal, i don't know if you want to use the tokenbox ?

    NoticeEntretienEuropa19.jpgHi VDM,


    You can also use coca-cola, if this is too rusty you can cut it, this is not a special bolt only one that have been bent at 90°, so if you need to cut it, warm up a bolt of the same dimension and bend it.


    Normally after one night with WD-40 it should come easily...Once you have removed all the part that i discribed previously, and if it still hard to remove the seat (that it seems to have not been removed since a long time) you can also unthread the two bold that link rear part of the chassis and the body...so you can prevent the fact that it will be hard to remove them by adding this magical WD-40.


    Just one question are you sure that all componants are ok to run your car ?


    Most of the time the balck box under the seat (Contactor) is out of order.

    DSCN5160.jpgDSCN5276.jpgYes i've seen your picture


    To take the seat apart you need to remove the two nuts under the chassis (This screw have a L shape), remove the headrest with with screwdriver behind the car and finally remove the lateral chromium, use two screwdrivers: one on each side, in the middle of chromium and plastic you have a nut, but sometime it is unthread...


    You need to open the tokenbox or the pace where the token are stored ?


    To open the tokenbox, i think you've got the model with the key


    Try to remove the two screws on chromium plate if you can


    Once this have been done with a thick srewdriver you can twist the latreal part


    To open the place where the token are stored.


    If you want to open this you need to remove the body (after the seat have been removed), once this have been unthread two bolt in front of the chassis two in rear part of the chassis, turn the body upside down you have acces to the system you need to push the slider and open the box where the token are placed.

    or this one:


    http://www.dpr-france.com/prod…onneuse-auto-skooter.html


    Weight of the fully car 220 kg


    No special tool, you can tilt it over by yourself or at two people it is easier


    use cloth close to the seat and in front part of the body, once the car is on lateral position, the car will safty stay on its side
